A $1.5 billion retail development in Salt Lake City, Utah, is scheduled to open on March 22. "With City Creek, because of its mixed-used nature, the core part of our building was built first, and then the stores were built in," said Linda Wardell, City Creek general manager. The retail development will have a 30,000-square-foot retractable glass roof, about 700,000 square feet of retail and dining space and 536 condominiums or apartments.
